Ames, Iowa, May 26, 1909
Dear Doctor Storms:
I am submitting herewith a report from
Professor Holden on the extension work and recommenda-
tions for appointment of the fund for current ex-
penses and for salaries for the coming year. We have
been over these matters quite carefully, and I recommend
the approval of this report, except that the salaries
for positons where the men are not named be considered
not definitely fixed by this action. It may be necessary
to pay higher salaries than indicated in some instances,
and it is quite probable that men can be secured for
lower salaries in other instances. It is also the inten-
tion that the arrangement concerning the members of the
staff whose names are inserted in brackets provisional,
and that definite recommendations will be brought to the
Board later. The amount of money necessary for this work,
however, will probably not vary materially from the amounts
recommended. I shall later submit a more extended report
concerning the several lines of extension work during the
past year.
Very truly yours,
Dr. A. B. Storms,
College.

Iowa State’s Extension Service carries its land-grant mission beyond campus, providing a research-based educational service to the people of Iowa. Early extension work included educational trains, short courses, farmer’s institutes, demonstration farms, and other activities. The state has experienced significant agricultural progress since its establishment.
